Bendtner is set to take his place in Arsenal's side for their Capital One Cup tie against West Brom on Wednesday and, according to Wenger, the Denmark international can make an impact this term.

The 25-year-old has not appeared in the Arsenal first team for over two years, having spent time on loan at Sunderland and Juventus, while his last goal for Wenger's side was one that earned him a hat-trick in the FA Cup against Leyton Orient in March 2011.
